How to get Itchy synths?

I've tried downloading Itchy synths a number of times and usually get bounced around to different "download" locations but the final download turns out to be something totally different that I don't want. A couple of times I downloaded something but when I ran it it wanted to get online and change my browser etc so I've canceled and trashed the program. Does anyone know where we can actually download it/them, preferably in a nice zip file?

After noticing that the links directed to files hosted on RapidShare, I decided to test the validity of the links. RapidShare reports each file as missing.

Hi Nopeda
If I may ask, why use Itchy synths when Tal Noisemaker is better, has a clearer GUI and is freely available from
http://kunz.corrupt.ch/products/tal-noisemaker for both Mac and PC?
Ditto Oatmeal (PC Only) which can be downloaded directly from here
http://bicycle-for-slugs.org/oatmeal38-1.zip (Be sure to choose a skin you find easy to use, otherwise you'll spend more time figuring out what the fuck you're looking at instead of using this truly powerful synth for making tunes!)

So are they not available any more?

Thanks I have both of those. I'm interested in any patches that would be good for trying dubstep if you know of any. Some of the stuff I read said the Itchy synths were designed toward dubstep so I was hoping to get them and they would have some good presets and there would be preset packs available too. But so far I can't even get the synths...I've probably tried chasing bogus downloads about a dozen times by now. All I got was some virus stuff so far.

Itchy was using the 'good for dubstep' as a marketing ploy. Remember that any synth is good for dubstep and that good dubstep comes down to imaginative song writing and a healthy dose of sub bass.
If you want presets, choose a synth like NI Massive or Camel Audio Alchemy that have loads of patch banks available. Check out Tal-Noise Maker linked to above if you want a straight forward synth that can make a wide range of sounds.

I am astounded upon the observation that one who perceives himself as outstandingly noble in the presence of others with distinct preferences would make such an assumption regarding others' dependencies.

I find it quite vexing that another would seek to harm his fellow mans good name in what would appear to be a pointless exercise in engaging ones ego.

Well played. However, I'm uncertain regarding the validity of your claims considering that, unless I failed to perceive some interpretation, no component of my prior statement alluded that I had possessed any intention or interest in indulging in any sort of self-panegyric.

I have tried itchy synths and honestly I thought I was being trolled. Good luck with them.

But they have to be legit. They have illegal substances on them.

There was the drugless version too in case you were offended.
